James hits a career-high nine 3-pointers, but Kawhi Leonard and Paul George combine for 52 points and the Clippers hit 19 3-pointers on their way to a comfortable 133-115 win.
LOS ANGELES — For the Lakers, Anthony Davis and Rui Hachimura are on their way. Perhaps as soon as Wednesday night, according to a TNT report.
Point guard Paul George had 27 points and nine rebounds, and Kawhi Leonard had 25 points and nine rebounds as the Clippers – using this starting lineup for only the fourth time and not even being able to finish with the same group – gutted out their 10th straight victory against their in-city rivals .
James’ 101st career 40-point game leaves him 178 short of breaking Abdul-Jabbar’s regular-season mark , putting him in position to potentially break the record toward the end of the Lakers’ upcoming five-game road trip instead of at home. Reggie Jackson added a 3-pointer and Leonard added a dunk to push the lead back to 18 points with five minutes remaining. With a game to play tomorrow night against San Antonio, that was the moment when Coach Darvin Ham decided to substitute in his bench – there would be no magical comeback, like the Lakers sparked in Portland on Sunday from a 25-point halftime hole.
